Multicenter longitudinal study of 216 early, levodopa‑naïve PD patients shows persistent gender differences in non‑motor symptoms over 2 years—women had greater anxiety, pain, autonomic and quality‑of‑life burden while men had more hypersexuality, daytime sleepiness/visuo‑spatial differences and…
This work supports early, gender‑specific phenotyping that can improve symptomatic management and stratification in clinical trials, but it offers limited direct mechanistic or targetable insights for novel disease‑modifying drug discovery.
Using Olink plasma proteomics and a Boruta-selected 11-protein panel, a stacking ensemble ML model discriminates Parkinson's disease from controls and other neurological disorders with good external validation and implicates inflammatory, ErbB, T‑cell, and lipid pathways.
Delivers a robust, blood-based diagnostic biomarker panel with translational potential for patient stratification and trial enrichment, while highlighting immune and metabolic pathways that could inform target identification or repurposing efforts.
This review synthesizes genetic and environmental risk factors for parkinsonian disorders, linking risk variants to pathogenic processes such as protein aggregation, trafficking, mitophagy, lysosomal/autophagy dysfunction, synaptic and dopaminergic disturbance, and noting pesticides and…
By mapping genetic risk to actionable mechanisms (e.g., mitophagy, lysosomal dysfunction, alpha‑synuclein propagation) and calling out environmental toxins that can be modeled experimentally, the paper helps prioritize therapeutic targets and exposure‑based disease models for Parkinson's discovery…
In 48 early PD patients, higher normal-range serum uric acid and albumin were associated with lower motor severity, faster reaction times, better mobility, and ERP signs of more efficient neural processing, with UA showing a linear protective trend and albumin an inverted-U relationship with…
Uric acid and albumin are readily measured systemic biomarkers that may index metabolic reserve and help stratify patients or motivate targeted metabolic/antioxidant interventions in neuroprotective trials, although the cross-sectional design and small sample limit causal inference.
Case series of four Parkinson’s patients who developed clinical and electrophysiological worsening of peripheral neuropathy after starting subcutaneous foslevodopa/foscarbidopa, with concurrent B6/B12 deficiencies and persistent hyperhomocysteinemia.
Identifies a clinically actionable safety signal linking metabolic (B‑vitamin/homocysteine) status to neuropathy risk during continuous fLD/fCD therapy, supporting baseline B‑vitamin assessment, monitoring, and consideration of supplementation to mitigate harm.
The paper reports a novel phenothiazine hyper-crosslinked polymer (PTZ-HCP) SPME fiber coating that enables sensitive, precise GC-FID quantification of nine short-chain fatty acids in rat feces and uses the method to show Coptis chinensis alters SCFA levels.
While not a therapeutic study, the work provides a robust analytical tool for measuring gut-derived SCFAs—key gut–brain axis biomarkers linked to Parkinson's disease—facilitating more reliable biomarker studies and evaluation of microbiome-targeted interventions.
This retrospective breast cancer study reports that PARK7 (DJ‑1) expression correlates with estrogen receptor positivity and accumulation of the AGE marker CML and is associated with favorable relapse‑free survival, while PARK7 levels did not change with aldehyde stress in cell lines and siRNA…
Direct Parkinson's therapeutic relevance is limited because this is a cancer biomarker study, but it supports DJ‑1's role in glycation defense—an axis (AGEs/glycation) that could merit follow‑up in neuronal and alpha‑synuclein models for potential DJ‑1‑targeted interventions.
This case-control study of 83 elderly patients found that higher serum P1NP and lower trochanter/total-hip BMD were associated with intertrochanteric (trochanteric) versus femoral neck fragile hip fractures, with P1NP identified as an independent risk factor for trochanteric fractures.
The paper has minimal direct relevance to Parkinson's therapeutic discovery, but the results could help in fracture-risk stratification and perioperative management of older people with Parkinson's—who are at higher fall/hip-fracture risk—rather than informing molecular drug targets.
This review evaluates flexible bioelectronic sensors combined with AI for continuous remote monitoring and closed-loop interventions in Parkinson's disease, highlighting material advances, multimodal fusion architectures, edge AI for privacy, and a translational gap due to small cohort validation…
While not identifying molecular therapeutic targets, the work is moderately valuable for Parkinson's drug discovery because robust, validated digital biomarkers and closed-loop monitoring can improve clinical endpoint sensitivity, enable remote trial assessments, and accelerate evaluation of…
This review summarizes recent regioselective biotransformation strategies to produce ginsenoside Rd and compiles evidence of its multitarget pharmacological activities, including reported neuroprotective effects relevant to Parkinson's disease.
By addressing scalable production of Rd and aggregating preclinical data on its multitarget neuroprotective actions, the paper is useful for translational prioritization of Rd as a nutraceutical or therapeutic lead for PD, though direct mechanistic and clinical validation appear limited.
This retrospective review of 695 patients shows that medications and comorbidities that can confound cardiac 123I‑MIBG scintigraphy are common (55.3%), frequently limiting the test's interpretability in routine clinical practice.
By documenting the high prevalence of factors that reduce MIBG reliability, the study signals the need for careful patient selection and protocol adjustments when using MIBG as a diagnostic biomarker or for stratifying patients in PD research and trials.
This paper provides a rigorously validated single-nucleus RNA-seq atlas of colon tissue from Pink1 knockout and wild-type mice, identifying major cell types and their transcriptional changes associated with Pink1 loss.
As Pink1 is a PD-linked regulator of mitochondrial quality control, this gut-focused single-cell resource enables hypothesis-driven exploration of gut-brain signaling, cell-type-specific mitochondrial and immune alterations, and potential gut-derived biomarkers or therapeutic targets relevant to…
The paper presents a two-layer radial-basis-function neural network trained via Bayesian regularization to obtain high-accuracy numerical solutions of a delay differential Parkinson's disease model with five state variables (healthy/infected neurons, activated microglia, extracellular α-synuclein,…
Although the computational approach yields precise simulations useful for studying disease dynamics, it provides little in the way of actionable therapeutic mechanisms, biomarkers, or translational insights for Parkinson's drug discovery, but may be a helpful tool for hypothesis testing and model…
Case report of a woman with genetically confirmed Huntington's disease who developed relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis confirmed by MRI and CSF oligoclonal bands and was treated successfully with dimethyl fumarate without new relapses or lesions.
Low direct relevance to Parkinson's therapeutic discovery, but the report underscores the importance of recognizing comorbid neuroinflammatory processes and the tolerability of an immune-modulating drug (dimethyl fumarate), which may be of peripheral interest for neuroinflammation-focused PD…
This review consolidates anatomical, physiological, preclinical and clinical evidence that the subthalamic nucleus integrates nociceptive signals in Parkinson’s disease, that pathological STN firing and beta oscillations exacerbate pain, and that STN-DBS and targeted circuit modulation reduce…
By positioning the STN as a mechanistic hub for PD pain and linking symptom relief to suppression of pathological firing patterns, the paper highlights actionable therapeutic routes—neuromodulation parameters, oscillatory biomarkers, and circuit-specific interventions—that can be translated into…
Meta-analysis of 130 FDG‑PET studies across Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS and MS identifies common bidirectional (hypo- and hyper-) glucose metabolic alterations with distinct, disease-specific neuroanatomical signatures suggesting adaptive/remodeling bioenergetic responses.
For Parkinson’s research, this supports prioritizing brain energy metabolism as a translational axis—FDG‑PET signatures could serve as biomarkers for patient stratification and for testing metabolic or anti‑inflammatory therapeutic strategies, though the study is correlative and not mechanistic.
Comprehensive review of GlyT1 (SLC6A9) structure, physiology, and pharmacology summarizing preclinical and clinical data on GlyT1 inhibitors (e.g., NFPS, bitopertin, iclepertin) and translational challenges.
Modulating GlyT1 alters glycine availability at NMDA receptors—pathways relevant to excitotoxicity, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive/motor circuits—providing a moderately actionable, indirect avenue for Parkinson’s symptom modulation or repurposing investigations despite limited direct…
Computational mini-review mapping BAG-family protein interactors and enriched pathways across Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s transcriptomic data, identifying shared and distinct networks but without experimental validation.
By highlighting BAG-associated pathways tied to proteostasis, autophagy, and mitochondrial function, the paper generates network-level hypotheses and candidate targets that could guide follow-up functional studies for PD therapeutic discovery.
Systematic review and meta-analysis of 11 RCTs found that wearable rhythmic auditory stimulation (RAS) significantly improves gait speed and balance in Parkinson's disease but shows no benefit on gait pattern, FOG-Q, or UPDRS-III.
